The Harder They Come: Deluxe Edition
 
Well they tell me of a pie up in the sky
Waiting for me when I die
But between the day you're born and when you die
They never seem to hear even your cry
 
[Chorus:]
So as sure as the sun will shine
I'm gonna get my share now of what's mine
And then the harder they come
The harder they'll fall, one and all
Ooh the harder they come
The harder they'll fall, one and all
 
Well the officers are trying to keep me down
Trying to drive me underground
And they think that they have got the battle won
I say forgive them Lord,
They know not what they've done
 
[Chorus]
 
Ooh yeah oh yeah woah yeah ooooh
 
And I keep on fighting for the things I want
Though I know that when you're dead you can't
But I'd rather be a free man in my grave
Than living as a puppet or a slave
 
[Chorus:]
 
Yeah, the harder they come,
The harder they'll fall one and all
What I say now, what I say now, awwwh
What I say now, what I say one time
The harder they come
The harder they'll fall one and all
Ooh the harder they come
The harder they'll fall one and all
